Miss you Cadoodle!!

This was the last time that I was to hold or see Cadden. He was gone 2 weeks later. We still don't know what happened on the day his light silently flickered out. We are still waiting on the state to decide. His absence in all our lives is felt everyday but none more than his parents. I cannot tell you how proud I am of them. They get up each day and try to move on. It is hard. They have good days. They have bad days. I am so far away but they have great friends there to support them. There are just not enough words to express how sad we are all, how much of a hole there is in our lives because he is not here with us. I know there was a reason for him leaving us so soon but it doesn't make it any less painful. We all want him back! We want to see his big dopey-like grin..the one that you can't help but smile with him.
Cadden's life was just like that...one smile after another. He was such a surprise to us all when he arrived in this world almost 3 months early. He fought hard to stay here with his new family. He lived at the hospital his first few months until he was able to finally come home. He never looked back...he lived a great but short life. There will never be another Cadoodle and we will never forget him. Watch over your mom and dad lil one...I love you!
